You want your pet’s photo session to be just as special as they are. Here are five tips for making sure your furry loved ones are ready to shine.
Tip #1: This one probably goes without saying, but make sure your pet is clean and well groomed. Depending on what we strive to accomplish, we may be using scratchable surfaces, so making sure their nails are trimmed will help make the session comfortable for them.
Tip #2: If your dog has a black or otherwise sleek coat, consider using a curry brush to really make their fur glisten.
Tip #3: Bring your pet’s favorite toy. We can use it for motivational purposes, as well as to capture your pup in his or her element and in a way that shows off their true essence.
Tip #4: Bring plenty of your pet’s favorite treats, cut down into reward-sized portions. We’ll want to positively reward your pup throughout the session for being such a very good boy or girl.
Tip #5: Bring your pet’s favorite cushion or portable bed/mat. If they get tired or bored, we’ll want to let them take breaks as necessary. Whether that be on their bed for the princes and princesses among the fur-tribe, or exploring their surroundings where the most inquisitive clients are concerned, make sure your dog has a way to relax and recharge as needed during our session.
Bonus Tip: Be prepared for you and your pet to have tons of fun. This is their big day to be a star. Wear them out before they come so they can focus on channeling their inner fashionist when they arrive. Their photo shoot will be their day to shine. Indeed, it will be all about them!
